Kate Gosselin Feels Like A Failure

The 34-year-old reality mom shares why she filed for divorce and how she and Jon told the kids about the split.

In her first interview since the divorce papers were filed, Kate reveals that it was Jon who wanted out.

“He does not want to be married to me anymore,” Kate said. “No questions asked, he went and hired a lawyer and said you better get one. So I did. I never would have made that step; I never would have done it.”

When Kate and Jon told their kids about the news, they never used the words “separation” or “divorce.”

“I’m not naïve,” she said. “I know that my kids will come out of this, to a degree, with some sort of dysfunction. I’m not stupid.”

Speaking about how she feels about the whole situation, the mother-of-eight shared, “On a good day, I feel relief. On a bad day, I feel failure.”
